I like C and voted for it.

Congrats @corn_zxl. Your logo was outstanding! I missed to vote for option C but believe that actually you gathered 7 votes.

Happy New Year🥳. Very sunny fresh day.

This cake looks like Scottish Dundee cake. The UK is the only European country that I traveled in my lifetime. To be honest, I can't say that foods are delicious because almost all of them really have NO tastes. But I cannot underestimate the sweets. I remember buying two similar cakes in a small cake stall in Covent Garden before I left London. Do you like whiskey, @Rob2012? Japanese whiskey is very popular with foreign tourists. If you ever come to Japan, try whiskey highball and whiskey bonbons!

What cake do British people generally eat on X'mas day? Victorian sponge cake? In the land of "Yoshi" 's birthplace Japan, strawberry shortcake is very popular. After eating fried chickens and cakes, we completely enter into New year mode. NHK Kohaku, an annual and special new year’s eve musical show is a boring festival by public broadcast. Ye formerly know as Kanye West had been witnessed in many places in Tokyo this autumn. He maybe came to Japan for recording for this show jk! @yoshi and @Sir Rols wish you happy new year and enjoy world athletics Tokyo 2025!

No. I like KFC but didn't have time to place an order for seasonal party pack this year. Instead, I bought some chicken legs of Fukuoka and cooked herb & spice roasted chicken with soya+butter+honey sauce. BTW Okinawa has the highest consumption of KFC in Japan. You OZs eats shrimps in Christmas. I never knew that. I thought the shrimp of your post meant Donald Trump of this! Happy new year 2025🎍🐍!

Merry Christmas from far east🎄!!
